I can't quite see what the benefit of a 1.4kW charging could possibly be.
The efficiency will be abysmal as the car won't go into a deep sleep and keep systems powered up. Battery longevity will be mostly unaffected, I suspect, as even 11 kW is a fairly paltry charge rate (compared to the 250kW peaks charge rate the M3 can hold) and unlikely to cause long term damage.
